Talk Playstation 3 News

Afrika is coming to North America this August with a few modifications and one of the better ones is that there will be trophies.

That was going to be my next question! What kind of modifications are you making?

First and foremost there is going to be a trophy system, which wasn’t in the Asian release or Japanese release. There have been other suggestions from us and other parties. So, we’ve been working with Rhino Soft and Sony now to tweak it. Obviously, that’s not the final version out there so we’re trying to see what we can do to help make it a touch better.

Afrika is also coming to Europe.

Are you going to buy the game?

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe confirmed to VG247 that there are no plans to release Afrika in Europe. A Sony spokesperson said:

“I can now confirm that there are currently no plans to release Afrika in Europe,”

I guess we will have to believe what they say.

Afrika is now available in Japan and here’s the complete trailer for the game. It is unsure whether the game will be released in Europe but a North American release sounds certain.

Pack your bags–the safari comes to Japan next week!

Afrika Japanese Complete Trailer

Sony Computer Entertainment Japan has update the Afrika website and displays a rather nice screenshot from the game with a release date on it. Afrika will be released in Japan on the 28th of August 2008.

No word on the American release, and its not even being released in Europe at all. Hopefully that will change for Europe.

Afrika is looking like a good game, something kinda new but the Europeans will be dissapointed to hear that Afrika will not be released in their territories.

Kotaku have the final release and price information for upcoming camera action game, Afrika. The release date is August the 28th and the price is ¥5980 (around $56). Thats a bit steep for a game but i’m sure its worth it for all the wildlife fans out there.

Afrika will NOT be coming out in Europe which is a bit of a shame since. A North American release is certain though.

Looks like Europe will have to import this game.
